Accuracy Quotes (page 2)

In modern physics, there is no such thing as "nothing." Even in a perfect vacuum, pairs of virtual particles are constantly being created and destroyed. The existence of these particles is no mathematical fiction. Though they cannot be directly observed, the effects they create are quite real. The assumption that they exist leads to predictions that have been confirmed by experiment to a high degree of accuracy. Richard Morris
Pyscho-history dealt not with man, but with man-masses. It was the science of mobs; mobs in their billions. It could forecast reactions to stimuli with something of the accuracy that a lesser science could bring to the forecast of a rebound of a billiard ball. The reaction of one man could be forecast by no known mathematics; the reaction of a billion is something else again. Isaac Asimov
The child who has been taught to make an accurate elevation, plan, and section of a pint pot has had an admirable training in accuracy of eye and hand. Thomas Huxley
Stanislav Grof quote: "In some instances, the accuracy of past-life memories can be..."
In some instances, the accuracy of past-life memories can be objectively verified, sometimes with remarkable detail. Stanislav Grof
If I know you're very good in music, I can predict with just about zero accuracy whether you're going to be good or bad in other things. Howard Gardner
I have always made an effort to render every detail of my reality with the greatest accuracy; but I have never paid attention to whether my presentation of historical facts was an exact one. Lion Feuchtwanger
We measure very carefully what the positives are and I think it is less than one tenth of one percent, so we are very pleased with the accuracy of our biometric checks and we continue to monitor that. Asa Hutchinson
Xenophon quote: "Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything."
Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything. Xenophon
Henry Martyn quote: "How or by what magic is it, that we convey our thoughts to one..."
How or by what magic is it, that we convey our thoughts to one another with such case and accuracy? Henry Martyn
If observed facts of undoubted accuracy will not fit any of the alternatives it leaves open, the system itself is in need of reconstruction. Talcott Parsons
A self-fulfilling prophecy is an assumption or prediction that, purely as a result of having been made, cause the expected or predicted event to occur and thus confirms its own 'accuracy.' Paul Watzlawick
A. J. P. Taylor quote: "A racing tipster who only reached Hitler's level of accuracy..."
A racing tipster who only reached Hitler's level of accuracy would not do well for his clients. A. J. P. Taylor
The game of life is a game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later with astounding accuracy. Florence Scovel Shinn
I think that's because believable action is based on authenticity, and accuracy is very important to me. I always spend time researching my novels, exploring the customs and attitudes of the county I'm using for their setting. Sidney Sheldon
Because of recent improvements in the accuracy of theoretical predictions based on large scale ab initio quantum mechanical calculations, meaningful comparisons between theoretical and experimental findings have become possible. Yuan T. Lee
